Indoor plumbing!There are so many people I know who do not have it. I will never do without that! Lots of places in Alaska don't.

A true must have luxury for me is my daily espresso! My husband's kitchen is superb! Our espresso maker is fantastic; now, if only my husband would make it for me everyday (his always tastes better than mine ), I'd be in Heaven!

It's a sad day in the economy in which we consider utilities to be a luxury and not a necessity for health and life. :-/

I only picked electricity because the day before that I had no power the whole day. Also my power has gone out 4times in on year at the house. Due to weather and tech issues. When there is no power I have no TV, no computer, no heat, and etc. That is why I can not live without it.

Wow I agree with the comment that its sad when water, elect & that all is a perk...
For me I would DIE without my PDA.. It's my life-line, my internet, my phone, my facebook, my way of life. If I lose my phone my world shuts down!!!

BOOKS. Whether online or in good-old-fashioned dead tree editions (or a Kindle, how I miss my Kindle so) I just plain need to read stories or I start going crazier than usual.

Of course, it's easy for me to read too much all the time and stop paying attention to the rest of life . . . sometimes being without books for a little while helps me wake up, look around the house and start being productive again, but mostly a day without reading is a day that's restless and cranky . . . >.>
